Keeping Your Car Forever, Or Getting All You Can Out of It
Save money: keep a car longerMy nephew has close to 300,000 miles on his 1997, Toyota Tacoma. He bought it when there was 50,000 miles on it. He has taken it to Hi-Tech Car Care since he purchased it. He changes his own oil every other time it is due. The other time he takes it to Hi-Tech. Hi-Tech has always told him when something needs repair and he responds. He hasn’t needed to replace the engine or transmission until recently. The transmission was beginning to fail and he had to decide whether investing in a new transmission is smart or whether he should invest that money into another newer vehicle. He decided that he would have to take out a loan for another vehicle. He hasn’t had a car payment in 5 years. |

It was most cost effective to have the transmission replaced. Hi-Tech Car Care did an inspection that determined his engine was still in good shape and any of the other parts in the car that had been replaced at Hi-Tech Car Care had a warranty on them. So he decided that he can keep driving his vehicle for a few more years and keep saving for his next one.
Again, please contact Hi-Tech Car Care with any questions or concerns about your vehicle. We are always here for you and want to make sure everyone is well informed and safe while driving on the road. |
